Emrys spritesheet! Our heroine's trusty attendant. In early plans he was going to have his own romantic bad ending but it got cut...

nef | Our Light Affliction is OUT NOW!!! @nefferinthia.itch.io · 12/05/2026

Another background finished! Do you agree with Lucifrid's philosophy?

Made a spritesheet as a visual guide for scripting, but this may work as marketing material 🤔

Me when drawing Lucifrid: I love Lucy so much, he is the best boy, I want to pinch his cheeks Me when drawing Ilya: I love Ilya so much, he is the best boy, I want him to stare at me in abject disgust

nef | Our Light Affliction is OUT NOW!!! @nefferinthia.itch.io · 26/03/2026

so i know the lighting makes 0 sense, but i also think it looks kinda good does anyone know how to actually draw cast light that makes sense? google wasn't helpful

okay i think that's all of them!!! figuring out the hideout was kind of hard since i couldn't really find examples of what i was looking for... but having thumbnails done should make drawing the backgrounds less intimidating!

Exorcist Ilya knows you're being haunted by that spider spirit, but don't worry, he'll save you. Whether you want him to or not.
